Auckland Aces' Phillips, 20, was the top run scorer in last season's domestic Twenty20 competition, with 369 runs at a strike rate of 143, earning him his maiden international call up to face South Africa earlier this year.

The move will see him link up with Aces coach Mark O'Donnell, who is also the Tallawahs' assistant coach.

"Glenn is valuable to any team he joins as he can turn a game on its head with his batting," O'Donnell said.
